what's in a nail?

to john bisbee, nothing but potential....i went outside about an hour or so ago to sit in my car for a few minutes and enjoy the weather...i was listening to all things considered on npr and they were interviewing an artist who, for the last 20 years or so, as done nothing but sculptures with nails....i thought it was vary interesting so i came in and looked him up, here are some pictures of his current exhibit at the portland museum of art...scratch that, i have no way to link pictures from my work computer, but follow that link for some very interesting shots of his nail sculptures....

also of interest: nailing the art of being an artist

I enjoyed the interview as well though I thought this was going to be about you getting nailed.

not until now! what a great story

i like that he is colour blind...it reminds of a friend who is as well...he flies planes for the airforce, during the "blue test" they had to put 10 different spectrums of blue in order from lightest to darkest...during his test he knocked one of the blocks on the floor, accidentally, and it landed number side up...sooooo, basically he cheated through his "blue test"

You need rhino skin
If youre gonna pretend
Youre not hurt by this world

If you listen long enough
You can hear my skin grow tough
Love is painful to the touch
Must be made of stronger stuff

You need rhino skin
To get to the end
Of the maze through this world
